What is the minimum distance apart that two brick buildings can be built without breaking the law?
Answers:
every town has its own building codes and regulations, and the only way to tellis to ask them,no one here can help you
You will need to check in with your local council. Ask for the planning department and they will be able to tell you.
Check your local laws. Here in the US in varies county to county depending on the zoning laws.
In Canada our local bylaws determine this and they can vary within jurisdictions across the street from one another. The practical approach would be: have they allowed sufficient space for correct grading and not to infringe on your right to enjoy and use your own property. Your question isn't quite clear to me about you garage. Rule number one: mutual driveways lead to neighbour wars..so avoid .sorry, I know you are already in it.
It varies from city to city.
I believe that in most places it is 6 feet. BUT.. that means nothing.. It depends ENTIRELY on the city regulations in your particular city. You should make a trilp to your City Hall and in particular to the City Planning Dept and ask them(into their zoning Dept)
i see buildings (UK) that are just a few inches apart all the way to the roof. i guess that so long as you stick to your side of the boundry and don't break the fire regs then as close as you can get them though all building works have to go through planning at the local council office and your neibhours have every right to object.
I presume you are in the UK, (after all, it is a UK and Ireland site). There is no minimum distance.

I suspect that you "share' a driveway with your neighbour.
I think if you examine your deeds you will find that at some point in the past it was mutually agreed to remove the fence so that each of you would more easily manoever their cars up the drive.
Your neighbour decided to build a shed on HIS land, and provided he sought planning permission, i'm afraid there is nothing you can do about it..
I'm sure he didnt think that by so doing he would restrict your access, as most neighbours are not vindictive,
I must add that if he deliberately did it to get you annoyed, then all you do is erect a fence in-between the remaining driveway so that he will have an awful time getting his car in.
Its like cutting off your nose to spite your face.

I'll answer this question for the benefit of those interested. The only thing different between doing a retro-fit and new construction is the "Roxul" insulation with-in the joist cavities R-12 with air space to top side. underside is sheathed in "SONOBOARD" and drywalled and or plastered, next "Resilient Channel" is screwed on in the opposite direction of floor or ceiling joist, another layer of drywall is attached to resilient channel as per manufacturer's guidelines. I also wall paper the backside of this drywall layer with regular aluminum foil using spray adhesive (obviously this is done before installation) tape and final drywall and you are done. The dead air space between the drywall layers is the key factor it's about 1/2", the tinfoil transmits sound to perimeters, sonoboard is light density along with the light density insulation. I use this system under Staple-Up Hydronic Heating systems but in this instance I place the foil on the up-side of insulation in the same manner as on the drywall to reflect the heat upwards.I really don't think you will go through all this.Buy ear muffs.
Contact your local Council and speak to the Building Control Officer, he will give you your answer and you will have no more worries.
